: trying to hit the other guy from across the map before he sees you.
: BOOOOOORING. So what if the other team got all the BRs. It used to mean

Right on. And even if you don't get to the BR spawning point first, then that's incentive to *gasp* get good at weapons with a higher learning curve, like the Sticky Detonator or Concussion rifle. To me at least, games that encourage players to learn to use and respond to as much of the sandbox as possible are the most fun.
